POV: schools tend to improve more quickly when they focus on sorting behaviour, promoting staff wellness and supporting all to deliver the basics of high quality teaching and learning well to meet the needs of the students in their class- rather than making Tik Toks.

Having great conversations with potential HT candidates - it is reassuringly exciting. Despite the negative optics sometimes - headship is a unique, rewarding, brilliant role.

Looking forward to getting back to healthy Edu-conversations and discussions where we can agree and disagree kindly - keeping young people at the heart of our thinking!
